Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Type-2 Diabetics of Lemmy: What were some of your symptoms that you only realized after your diagnosis were symptoms of diabetes?English
2·3 days agoYou’re so welcome! Good luck getting whatever it is figured out!
Assuming it’s the same feeling, it’s such a weird one to try and describe. I think that rings true though: it’s like a caffeine buzz, only it makes you feel sluggish instead of energised. 😅
YMMV, but if it is diabetes, the good news is it probably won’t take too many changes to start feeling better. I just went as low carb as I could bear (probably more Atkins than keto, so nothing too drastic) and cut out caffeine (it can cause blood sugar spikes). For now, that’s enough to manage it without any meds or finger-pricks, and I feel so much better! You don’t even feel that deprived when you’re having rich, creamy sauces on everything, and I’ve lost 32 lbs in less than 3 months, even while snacking the normal amount. 😂 I don’t even really exercise!

5·3 days agoThis probably sounds stupid, but I just kinda… started feeling diabetic? 😅 Like, how I was feeling matched my extremely vague idea of “what diabetes might feel like”, so I asked for blood tests, and yep.
I don’t think peeing a lot was really part of mine. I just found eating usually made me feel worse instead of better, and I was starting to get occasional tingling in my hands and feet.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why do some people have so many browser tabs open?English
13·7 days agoThis may or may not be a joke, but yes, this is very often talked about among ADHDers!
I’m AuDHD and thankfully this is one area where my ordered, autistic side wins out – i.e. I have meticulously organised bookmarks and “Raindrop” tags for everything instead. 😄 I couldn’t stand having tons of tabs open.

United Kingdom@feddit.uk•The VPN panic is only getting startedEnglish
11·7 days agoI don’t have kids, but if age restriction did come for VPNs, I honestly think I’d subscribe to one for them. Or at least bring back the idea of having a “family computer” in the main living area, where they can use a VPN with supervision.
I know everyone’s kids are different, but surely it’s better to at least attempt to teach them how to use the internet safely and in a healthy way (adblock, security, privacy, bots, scams, the perils of social media, discussions about porn and when it is and isn’t healthy/exploitative etc.) rather than keeping them on The Pretend Internet till they’re 18 and then unleashing them on the world. 😬 So they can fall for every scam and get “hacked” every few days and argue with AI bots like old ladies.
Oh. In which case it still works fine for me, what can I say. 😅
Archive.ph is good, especially because I’ve never met a paywall it couldn’t bypass. 😏

2·14 days agoIt irks me that all you ever hear about is “Ugh, Microsoft trying to force people to use Edge again”
And yet, when I did use Edge, I had to install an extension to remove the huge “We recommend using Chrome” banner on every Google service. 😬

Technology@lemmy.ml•Microsoft AI CEO Puzzled by People Being "Unimpressed" by AIEnglish
90·14 days agoI get where he’s coming from as a tech person… I’m old enough to remember chatting to ELIZA and Alicebot. The current state of AI is impressive to me, as well as “worrying” and “destroying the planet” and “being rammed down our throats” and all the other bad stuff.
It’s wildly tone deaf of him to say it in the middle of a backlash, though. 😬

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What's a better way to say "possibly possible" or "necessarily necessary"?English
17·14 days agoWhat’s a better way to say “possibly possible”?
That is, it may be possible for humans to colonize Mars or create sentient AIs, or for you to lift 400 pounds, but we don’t know yet.
You answered your own question. 😁

Kinda feels like the opposite of how it should work, too. The people buying the most and supporting the video game industry get the worst deal. 😬
